I knew what she meant but this is such a big makeover for your pool, why not have a party to celebrate? I actually did have a party once the liner was getting installed with about 12 people in my family hanging out on the back porch watching the guys take out the old and put in the new liner. We didn't plan to watch and be creepers but everyone found it very interesting.

Good luck. Here are some pics of my old vs new liner to get you excited at how the finished result will make it look 100% better.

We found it. I can’t even see the end of the line. It’s under some rocks and bricks. I think the best we could do is dig a culvert on our property to lead it away from our house. But we can use the submersible pump for most drains and I’m not worried about a little water from backwashing.

Pool finished draining between 4am and 8am. Just a little left - moved the pump and got it.

There seemed to be some water under the deep end liner. We cut a slit, and used a shop vac to get it out too. The water was fairly clean. Just lots of little white flakes that were probably from the back of the liner.

I am going to ask a couple of people HOW to clean it and if it is a good idea to clean it. @jimmythegreek@ajw22
Those are some of the cleanest walls I have seen! The bottom looks great also!!! You scored!!!

You can use spray adhesive instead of tape. May last longer than tape in the long run.
